Tres leches (milk cake). As far as the milk mixture goes I omit the whole milk and just blend together the three milks (hence the name Tres Leches) heavy cream evaporated milk and condensed milk together. Sweetened condensed milk, whole milk and whipping cream are the traditional "three milks" that are mixed together and poured into "poke" holes, saturating this tres leches cake recipe and transforming it from an everyday sheet cake into a moist, flavorful and deeply rich dessert. Tres Leches Cake is an authentic Mexican cake soaked in three kinds of milk, topped with whipped cream and cinnamon.

When cake is cool, pierce the surface with a fork several times. I like to mix it in a pitcher or something that is easy to pour. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and half-and-half in a bowl. Lay the cake into the milk mixture.
